Abstract

Forty-two bacterial strains were isolated from root samples of Sorghum bicolor. The strains spanned 17 genera, including Dechloromonas, Duganella, Dyella, Flavobacterium, Herbaspirillum, Lutibacter, Mucilaginibacter, Novosphingobium, Paraburkholderia, Pedobacter, Pleomorphomonas, Rhizobacter, Rhizobium, Rhizomicrobium, Rugamonas, Variovorax, and Xanthobacter. Their whole-genome sequences revealed diverse metabolic processes, including biological nitrogen fixation, in sorghum root microbiota.
